How to transfer data from a variable to an another variable?

[Fardin]

Hi,

The following code is apart of my image upload process code:

$crop->new_name = $this->RandomStringGenerator() . "." . $crop->ext;

$this->new_name2 = $crop->new_name;

The problem is that the value in new_name2 variable is not same as variable new_name. How can I fix this issue?

Don't know unless you post more of your code. Without the function code how do we know what $this is supposed to be or how that object was initialized?

This is a guess without more detail but try:

$this->new_name2 = clone $crop->new_name;

"variable new_name"?

Is that a separate and distinct variable or you are just simply not specifying the object name?

We need the full code of the method where you are trying to do this.  The use of a local $crop variable is odd.  With that said, inside a method, that line should work fine, so there is something else missing in your question.  You say they are "not the same."  Where is it that you find this to be the case?
